"Nice to meet you!"

Translation: Приємно познайомитися!

[Jenny73xox]

doesn't this translate to "really pleasant"? my dad speaks Ukrainian and says nice to meet you would be "приєино побачити тебе"

[Iwan_Lviv]

Nice to meet you! - приємно зустріти тебе (вас)! Але при знайомстві з кимось після представлення відповідають "Дуже приємно" або, не офіційно, як варіант, "Радий знайомству"

[Terry974029]

I omitted дуже as I thought that was VERY nice to meet you

[Kyukiou]

I accidentally wrote " Дуже Пріємно " instead of Дуже Приємно " so, I'm assuming 'И / І' can be used interchangeably or just in this specific case?

Or even more, it was just a typo & it's accepted? :X

[Shady_arc]

Duolingo does not mark it as a mistake if you usre the wrong one. Of course, you cannot use them interchangeably because Ukrainian has certain orthography, and these letters represent vastly different pronunciation.

[Kyukiou]

Okay thank you. I appreciate the response, I'll be careful to use the appropriate letter then.

[Shady_arc]

The difference is similar to the difference between "sit" and "seat", only the sound of "s" in Ukrainian also changes before "i" but stays neutral before "и"

[SudoNim1]

So the "и" is more like "sit" and the "i" is more like "seat", correct? But "и" seems to vary a lot with context. Sometimes it's more tense, closer to "seat", sometimes it's more open, as in "met", sometimes it's diphthongized into a kind of "u-e” or "u-i” sound. I haven't cracked the code of the phonology of "и" yet.
